Hi kids and welcome to my news page. I hope you like my cool website, full of ideas and information about school meals plus competitions, games and other activities for kids like you.

I hope you had a great spring holiday and spent lots of time with your family and friends.

Holidays are great aren't they! I like it when you can just do as you please, but even at these times its important to remember that eating the right foods, taking regular exercise and drinking plenty of water is very important in keeping our bodies and minds healthy. I hope you'll be eating lots of healthy foods, with plenty of fruit and vegetables. I think food is great and so much fun! This term I'm trying really hard to eat a healthy, balanced diet.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and helps me to concentrate at school and keep going until lunchtime. I like cereals, toast, yoghurt, fresh fruit, milk and fruit juice and I always remember to clean my teeth afterwards. A good breakfast can really make a difference.

Like many of my friends I still like burgers, pizza, sticky buns and sweets , but I know that too much of those types of food is not good for me. I need to be really fit to surf the ocean waves and keep up with the gang, so I eat pleanty of fruit and vegetables, lean meat and oily fish to give me my vitamins, minerals and protein.

I eat potatoes, pasta, rice and bread to give me carbohydrates for energy and I drink plenty of fresh water to keep me hydrated. Did you know that the thirstier you are the more difficult it is for you to concentrate.

Why not see if you can follow these simple food ideas and see how fit you can be.

Why don't you enter Max's competition. You could win some great prizes.

Have some great fun this term and remember to keep safe if your outside on bikes and scooters or near busy roads. Always remember to look out for cars and other vehicles. Always let an adult know where you are and remember to never talk to strangers.

So have fun, eat right and stay safe and come back and see me soon.
